Engine runs fine. But it quits when I pull the trigger on the wand to start washing

Does this behavior change if the engine is warm and on minimum choke? Do you get any water spray before the engine quits? Carburetor could be dirty or float stuck. Try putting dose of carburetor cleaner through engine and cycle choke lever and engine speed lever back and forth while engine is running after it has warmed up without running water spray. See owners manual.

Where is the choke on a Brigg-stration model 580-752920 engine?

Hello,
This particular model is called a readystart engine, they do NOT have a primer or choke, if you are having fuel troubles starting there could be a blockage in the carburettor or fuel filter.

Hope this helps

Starts but wont run with choke off

My Yard Works was set at the factory to run with the choke partially on. They said it has something to do with the air pressure where we live. Otherwise if it has to have the choke on full then there should be a screw to set it so it will run with the proper setting

Cant find choke on craftsman 2700 2.3 ready start 7.75

If I remember correctly, there is not an operator actuated choke on that unit. It is thermostatically controlled be a device behind the muffler.

This issue sounds like gummed up fuel strainers, or jets. you would need to open up and clean the carb.

Pressure washer stalls off choke

Probably the carb's low/mid speed circuits are clogged real bad. The only fix I know if they are as bad as you describe is remove and soak/clean carb, and this may not work as some of the circuits are as fine as as human hair, and the solvent may or may not work. Then it' replacement time.

I have a Karcher pressure washer w/ a 5hp Honda engine. It only will run while the choke is pulled out and only runs at about half the rpm's. When the choke is pushed in.. it coughs, sputters and shuts off. Can you tell me how to fix this....

Try removing the air filter to see if it solves the problem.
If that works replace or clean the air filter.
